Summary/Abstract: The Habsburg court and Queen Maria Theresa began the forced settlement of Catholics into Hungary in the 18th century. The study examines the form these efforts at recatholicization took among the Jazygians (Jászok) and Cumanians (Kunok) living in the north-west of the Great Plain, the denominational conflicts they caused and the influence on human relations, everyday and festive customs. The study also deals with Catholic–Calvinist mixed marriages and the differences in way of life and customs (differences in festive days, weddings and burials between the denominations living within the same settlement).
